PRIOR TO THE DEVIL'S HOUR coming out in October 2022, cast and crew found it almost impossible to nail the series down. That is, without spoiling its otherworldly concepts. As Jessica Raine (Lucy Chambers) told SFX at the time, "I don't quite know what genre to put it in. I don't really know what to compare it to, and I think that's a good thing." Advance promotion subsequently pigeonholed the series into a genre it didn't quite belong to. "Everyone kept saying 'It's a psychological thriller,' but it's not psychological," creator and writer Tom Moran tells SFX. "Actually, that's the reveal. It's not about people going mad, it's not about aspects of their psyche. It's about something much bigger than that. I would always describe it now as an existential thriller which, to me, covers the fact that it's supernatural and there are forces at play. It's essentially about a bunch of characters discovering the true nature of reality." In this reality, everyone lives their lives over and over and over again. Put your phones away; this series requires your full concentration. "There are different loops," he explains.
